Someone please brief Commander in Chief. 🇺🇲 B-1 bomber flight less than 80 km from Venezuela live on @flightradar24 was a huuuge military provocation. Pres needs to know, this is really bad for his already tarnished image. Looks like he is not in control.
They were easily viewable on flight radar and have been tracked by open source analysts for most of the day. At its closest point a B1 bomber was a little more than 50 miles from the Venezuelan mainland. (ht @avery__schmitz )

Between the destruction of the East Wing and the pardoning of a corrupt family business partner, Trump is in the “I can shoot someone on 5th Ave” phase of his presidency.

Everyone watching B-1s from Texas, meanwhile the real strike package is arriving after a 50+ hour transit from Ellsworth, traveling a Great Circle across the North Pole, down South to Antarctica and up again through South America... 🤭 It's called 4D, y'all

Confirmation of the B-1B callsign BARB via @flightradar24 now heading back to CONUS after seen off the coast of Venezuela. Their ADSB/Mode-S was turned on intentionally. CURIE? 91 (RC-135) is also in the vicinity after refueling with DREW 14 (KC-135). There are so many aircraft
B-1B bombers (BARB 21) currently flying over the Caribbean Sea from Dyess AFB, Texas for an exercise. They will integrate with various US military assets for the next several hours today. Audio via @liveatc

An interesting detail. Gerasimov said that the exercise "practice[d] the procedures for authorizing the use of nuclear weapons." In 2024, it was to test procedures of "a massive nuclear strike in response to a nuclear strike by an adversary" h/t DS
Russia conducted a regular exercise of strategic forces. Launches of Yars from Plesetsk, Sineva from Barents Sea (Bryansk submarine), and ALCMs from Tu-95MS. https://t.co/j54MSXyyRL The image is a rare shot of a launch as seen from inside a Krona shelter.

Petrobras received approval this week to begin exploration in the highly prospective Foz do Amazonas region of the Equatorial Margin 🇧🇷 #OOTT PBR notes production "replacement challenges" beginning in the 2030's. Still very early on EQM. Galp's Mopane/PEL 83 could be a fit? 🇳🇦

Something noticeable in this shot is the presence of the "New START fins," which indicate that this specific B-52H is nuclear-capable. It doesn't mean much here; I just thought it was an interesting detail.

The cost is not the point. The White House does not belong to Trump. When the Obama-era renovations were done, the White House still looked like the White House.
A CNN report from 2010: $376 million White House renovation during the Obama Administration. Where was the Democrat outrage then?
